Can you tell us where mycoplasma genitalium comes from? For example it's said the e.coli lives in the digestive tract of mammals and plays a role in the process of metabolizing carbohydrates. It's understood that certain bacteria are responsible, however, we are virtually never told where they come from. Thank You

They come from the One Infinite Creator
